She’s like the old horse with the carrot 🥕 hanging on a cane pole just in front of him and he wants that carrot and that car in front of her is her carrot and she wants it bad brother. I was there in her seat many times. But girl you driving that car now just remember smooth is fast and patience is a virtue. You’re doing great stick with it and when you win one and that confidence is maxed out you’re gonna feel so good about your abilities and goals in life that had never crossed your mind that you could be capable of. Excellent job darlin. That crew chief and teacher deserves a big ole thank you and a hug

It's an EASY trap to fall into where you just start pushing a little farther and farther into the corner chasin that carrot. What's got me so excited was seeing her recognize doing that mid race and then slow back down and get the car back under control. She did it a couple times but now she's seeing how that works and that's telling me we have turned the corner on her learning to race.

I think one thing that helps is Rachel has been at the races with us for years so even though she's new to driving she knows the lingo and how the tracks change and work. What I am also looking forward to is having her, now as a driver, watching me race and helping me understand whats going on with my car and driving when looking at it as an observer. That's something I have never had that I think will help me become better.

Haven't been to Clayhill since they opened back up. Was always a great venue. We went to Garmertown one year for a big street stock race. They must have had 30+ cars start a 100 lap race. 2 cars finished. The 2nd place finisher was at least 10 laps down but he was one of the only 2 cars that finished and survived the race. It was a wild one.

In the feature she was 7/10 off the fastest cars fastest lap, and she hasn’t done this what 4-5 times now. She will get the steering under control it’s early early on and she looked very much improved in my opinion. Keep digging. She made that feature interesting 💪🏼
@DIRTRACELIFE
@DIRTRACELIFE Год назад
I was kind of looking at the same thing. I was looking at how she was running equal lap times to the leader when she would get a lap in without any errors and that's what is making me feel like we are turning a corner here and just going to get better with experience.

Car and her looks better, word of advice on the restarts, get on the car in front of the heels. Shes almost half a hood back. I remember when i first started racing and i would be 2 car lenghts back. I'd also suggest a 6:1 or even a 8:1 quick steer box. May help them arms from waving.
@DIRTRACELIFE

@johnspears6512
@johnspears6512 Год назад
In the main she was so comfortable in 3-4 she could have moved up a lane and been a rocket coming off of 4. 1-2 I felt like she should have not come off the throttle as much and trail brake coming off to slow the rear end speed up some. All in all like you said... she's gonna hurt some feelings next season!!

@WindRider1
@WindRider1 11 месяцев назад
Looks like she may be over driving. Hands are way to busy. I remember when i first started i was the same way. I had to learn to let the car do the work. You dont have to turn the steering wheel very much if the front end is set correctly. Just a little left to transfer the weight then back right to drive off. It's a learning experience we all have to go through. I too had a wife that drove and it is a chore setting up a car for a woman. They just don't drive like most men do. Im enjoying watching her progress.😢
